Free thin file software for linux

Thin FTP Applet is a full featured File Transfer Program that can be easily integrated into your website or web application.
You can use it to carry out recursive folder uploads and downloads. Entire directory trees being transfered in single click. Interrupted transfers can be resumed.
Thats not all that the applet can do, it can be used to rename, delete and change permissions of file and folders and do almost anything that you can do with your favourite desktop FTP client.
Even though Thin FTP is a web client, its appearence is no different from the traditional 2-Table interface found on many desktop clients. Because Thin FTP is an applet, it does not need to refresh itself each time a file transfer or any other operation takes place.
The Profession Edition provides even tighter integration with existing web applications by allowing for automatic login.
Enhancements:
- Compatibility issues with OS X and Netware FTP servers and the pure-ftpd server on Linux have been addressed.

thin liquid film project is an application which allows linux users to quickly and easily convert video files into a format suitable for playing on the video capable ipods. I wrote this application, after purchasing a video ipod, and being frustrated that the only real option for converting video was either via command-line, or via a servicemenu with no ability to configure the resulting video file.
TLF uses the ffmpeg engine to do the encoding. It is written in pyqt, so it should work with a default kde installation, and is very easy to install.

Thinux is a thin client system that resides on a Red Hat Linux server. When a thin client requests to boot on LAN, the server will upload the thin client linux system to the thin client. Ideal for lightweight devices such as Point-of-Sales terminals, embedded devices, etc.

ThinLinc is a fast and versatile terminal server system. ThinLinc is based on open protocols such as TightVNC and SSH.
The ThinLinc server software runs on Linux or Solaris, and can be used to distribute Linux/Unix desktops to thin clients. The system also supports additional application servers, such as Windows Terminal Server.
This makes it possible to mix applications from different environments on the same desktop. ThinLinc supports redirection of sound, local printers, disk drives, and serial ports, on top of SSH. Clients for Windows, Linux, and Solaris are available.
Additionally, there is a Java Browser Client, a small OS designed to run only the client (TLCOS) and a LiveCD. Client packages for several thin terminals, such as Fujitsu-Siemens Futro, Neoware, and VXL Itona, are also available.
Enhancements:
- This version includes several new features and many corrections (more than 180 enhancements).
- Microphones and other input devices are supported with Windows Terminal Servers.
- The Windows client now features Local Drive Redirection, which makes it possible to access local hard disks, CD-ROMs, DVDs, USB drives, etc. from the server.
- This release includes software for integrating with the Novell Client for Linux.
- Several new client platforms are supported, such as Mac OS X, Windows Vista, Windows XP Embedded, and Wyse Linux Terminals.

Gerris project is an Open Source Free Software library for the solution of the partial differential equations describing fluid flow.
Gerris is supported by NIWA (National Institute of Water and Atmospheric research) and by the Marsden Fund of the Royal Society of New Zealand.

- Solves the time-dependent incompressible variable-density Euler, Stokes or Navier-Stokes equations or the 2D shallow-water and 3D hydrostatic oceanic equations.
- Support for complex solid boundaries (automatic locally-refined mesh generation).
- Semi-implicit multigrid diffusion solver with support for complex boundaries and associated boundary conditions in 2D and 3D.
- Semi-implicit multigrid barotropic solver for the oceanic equations.
- Adaptive mesh refinement: the resolution is adapted dynamically to the features of the flow.
- Flexible and powerful specifications of parameters.
- Flexible object-oriented custom specification of initial and boundary conditions, source terms, outputs etc...
- Portable parallel support using the MPI library.
- Volume of Fluid advection scheme for interfacial flows.
Enhancements:
- Bugfixes and significant speedups in the multilevel Poisson solver.
- Support for variable mesh resolution along solid boundaries.
- Improvements have been made to the robustness of very complex solid boundaries.
- Adaptive refinement of VOF-advected tracers has been added, as well as a preliminary implementation of CSF surface tension using Renardy El Ab.
- "proper discretisation".
- Solid boundaries can be refined according to the local curvature.
- Implicit Coriolis terms work with the Navier-Stokes solver.
- There is support for "thin" 3D domains.

Tkinter is Pythons de-facto standard GUI (Graphical User Interface) package. It is a thin object-oriented layer on top of Tcl/Tk.

Tkinter is not the only GuiProgramming toolkit for Python. It is however the most commonly used one, and almost the only one that is portable between Unix, Mac and Windows.

CameronLaird calls the yearly decision to keep TkInter "one of the minor traditions of the Python world."

DirectFB is a thin library that provides developers with hardware graphics acceleration, input device handling and abstraction, integrated windowing system with support for translucent windows and multiple display layers on top of the Linux Framebuffer Device.
DirectFB project is a complete hardware abstraction layer with software fallbacks for every graphics operation that is not supported by the underlying hardware. DirectFB adds graphical power to embedded systems and sets a new standard for graphics under Linux.

PXES project is a micro Linux thin client distribution. PXES will boot a real thin client or will help to convert in minutes any compliant hardware (see list bellow) into a versatile thin client.
They will be capable of accessing any XDM server presenting the graphical login screen or any Microsoft Terminal Server through RDP protocol. The actual configuration of clients is made with an easy to use graphical configuration tool, allowing the specification of clients parameters or the server to access to.
You can recover hardware that is useless running current desktop OS or office package and give it a second chance. This thin client boots from the network with PXE (Intel Pre-Execution Environment specifications) so neither boot diskette nor boot eprom is needed.
The linux kernel and an initial root filesystem is transmitted over the network (the compressed size as of version 0.4 is about 4M).
Main features:
Supported servers and protocols
- Unix/Linux supporting XDM
- Microsoft Terminal Server using RDP
- Citrix using ICA
